Introduction: As personalized medicine advances, there is an escalating need for sophisticated tools to understand complex biomechanical phenomena in clinical research. Recognizing a significant gap, this study pioneers the development of patient-specific in silico models for tooth autotransplantation (TAT), setting a new standard for predictive accuracy and reliability in evaluating TAT outcomes.
Methods: Development of the models relied on 6 consecutive cases of young patients (mean age 11.

The metabolism of 4-keto-all-trans-retinoic-acid (4-keto-RA), a biologically active oxygenated metabolite of all-trans-retinoic (RA), has been examined. In vitro, incubation of [14C]4-keto-RA with hamster liver microsomes in the presence of NADPH produced two major radioactive metabolites which were more polar than the parent compound. Following isolation, appropriate derivatization and analysis by GC-MS, these compounds were tentatively identified as 2-hydroxy- and 3-hydroxy-4-ketoretinoic acid.

In rats, the excretion of the radioactivity was very rapid. The predominant excretion in rat feces (78-82% of the dose) was related to an extensive biliary excretion of metabolites (72-79% of the dose), only a small part of which underwent enterohepatic circulation.

The biotransformation of 3H-flunarizine ((E)-1-[bis(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-4-(3-phenyl-2-propenyl)piperazine dihydrochloride, FLUN) was studied in subcellular liver fractions (microsomes and 12,000 g fraction) and in suspensions or primary cell cultures of isolated hepatocytes of rats, dogs and man. The major in vitro metabolites were characterized by h.
